Comments/Problems:
The whole install process went increbibly smoothly. Everything was a
no-brainer and correctly detected.
I opted for "Desktop System" when configuring packages, and it installed
KDE and Gnome, whereas I only wanted Gnome. This resulted in a bigger
download.
I don't know if this is the default behaviour or if I skipped an option
to make more specific choices about what to install.
After the install I did the following:
* upgraded to Sid
* made minor adjustments for monitor resolution and refresh rate
* installed Nvidia 3d drivers
* set up SCSI-emulation for CD and DVD burning. Very easy to figure out,
but IMO could be part of the installation process.
Overall a very complete setup which (along with a few extra tweaks) left
me with a fully working and very stable system.
All the best

This is standard behavior and the source of many discussions...

AFAIK SCSI-emulation is no longer needed with the current kernels for CD/DVD
burning.

Thank you very much for using the installer and filing this report.
As there were no problems, I'm closing the report.
Cheers,
